Good find Tommy!

I was over in that area yesterday lookin Pat...didn't see it. Its there though!!

You dropped your keys.

Sweet!!!

nice grab!! Did you get at a garage sale price?

WHAT THE ...how the heck do you guys find this stuff?! That is KILLER!......MAN!..... ...and you found that in Oklahoma?.....maybe there is still hope here in Kansas Toto.......go get Dorothy boy, we're going garage sale hunting.....

Moto mag eha? Sounds like a good idea for a tatoo?

jeffry1970, just real dusty like after a day at the trails. looked like it had been hanging up in a garage for 25 years. bmx2112, you know it ! he says, that's an O L D Mongoose you know?!?! yes I say, how much ? $40. I thought that was a real good deal !!!

I might be inclined to tell the story how I found a box stock, nickel Motomag around the same era (Ashtabula forks, motomags, etc), with a perfect, unripped Mongoose/Messinger seat at a swap meet for $35 and passed it up because I had yet to catch the vintage bug...

But if I told that story, I would cry. And I refuse to cry. Tonight.

I mean, stickers and everything...

And then, I scored a stock 1978 MX2 with the 2-hole gusset and an original Redline stem (i.e. gold stem style) FOR FREE and I traded it for a crappy Giant mountain bike to ride my kid around on...

Oh crap.

I'm crying.

Crying?...There's no crying in BMX!! LOL yeah I know how you feel. When I just started building and collecting again I found a white 80-81 Red Line MX-II that was stock down to the snakebellies and reflectors in close to mint cond. for 90.00. No cash that day so I went back to the Pawn shop 4-5 days later and they had sold it.

remember: greenwood and peoria, and don't report back till you get it now- you hear!
